Reading Competion

On April 16, 2008 a group of  F.C.A. students went to Mill Creek Elementay School in Warminister to take part in the Bucks County Reading Olympics. Each of the students read as many books as they could from a list provided. At the competion they were asked questions about  the stories.  The team did very well and was awarded a Blue Ribbon for answering more than 50 questions correctly.
